There is no chance, there is absolutely no percent of a chance that I believe that in my heart. And I’ll never concede that.”-Rex Ryan After Thursday’s Thanksgiving massacre, Rex Ryan came out with comments saying that [...]

To start this off I hope everyone enjoyed a happy and a healthy Thanksgiving with good people and good food. There is plenty to be thankful for from family and friends to good health. However what I am most thankful for is the New York Jets. Without them, the AFC East would be a lot [...]

Patriots Must Respond to Difficult Challenge on Thanksgiving vs. Jets

By ⋅ November 20, 2012 ⋅ One comment

The last time the Patriots were scheduled to play the Jets, we heard the same propaganda from the media and the fans. Pats will roll. The Jets stink. Mark Sanchez is not a big-time quarterback. All of this may be true. But, I wasn’t being a contrarian when I predicted a Jets victory, and I [...]

Patriots-Colts Week 11: Notes and Observations

By ⋅ November 19, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

- The first thing that we all took away from this game is the injury to Rob Gronkowski. The injury definitely hurts as Gronk does a lot more for the offense than just catch passes and spike footballs. He is one of the more dominant blocking tight ends in the NFL today and his presence [...]

Positives and Negatives: Patriots-Bills, Week 10

By ⋅ November 13, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

The Patriots’ 37-31 win over the Bills was penalty-plagued from the start, and without Buffalo digging their own holes constantly throughout the first half, I’m not sure the Patriots walk out of this one with a win. There is a tough stretch of games coming up in which they face San Francisco and Houston, and if the [...]

Week 7: Notes and Observations vs. the New York Jets

By ⋅ October 22, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

- I’ve been saying it all season that the problem with the Patriots, contrary to popular belief, is not the defense, but is this supposedly high powered offense. They showed glimpses of brilliance against the Bills, Broncos, and Titans, but to say they are inconsistent is a huge understatement. They lack an identity. – One [...]

Patriots Do Everything to Give Away Another Late Lead, Can’t Quite Pull Off the Loss

By ⋅ October 21, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

No one can say the Patriots don’t bring plenty of drama in their games. In beating their arch rival Jets 29-26, the Patriots let New York get ahead early, came back to open up a lead, let New York back in it, opened another lead, let New York take the lead, tied the game and [...]
